Watch for the sign that makes a left-hand turn. Once there, you will enter literally a piece of history. More than 120 years ago, Minnesotans faced an impending natural disaster. A grasshopper plague, which would destroy the state's crops. News of the dilemma spread throught the United States that winter, causing grave concern nationally. Minnesota farmers turned to God. Minnesota's Governor, John Pillsbury set aside April 26, 1877 as a day of fasting and prayer to ask God for deliverance from the plague. April 26 arrived and all businesses, theaters, stores and bars were closed. Churches were filled. Midnight approached, the sky clouded over, and a cold rain began. The wind shifted from the south to the north and the rain turned to heavy snow. The storm raged throughout the following day. The next day, farmers hurried to their fields and found that the vast majority of grasshoppers had been frozen just as they were hatching. The people of Cold Spring, near St. Cloud erected a small but beautiful chapel on the top of a high hill. Assumption Chapel, better known as the Grasshopper Chapel has become a pilgrimage. * Stearns County Courthouse: 725 Courthouse Square, Downtown St. Cloud. Phone: 320-656-3600.
